Macassar Ebony riser, Zebrawood limbs on the left.

Koa limbs on the right, not certain on the riser wood. Maybe lighter toned Macassar or Shedua??

How did you save the pictures did they have a name from the site that they came from or the name of the wood in the address of the image?

If you saved them but you didn't name the woods or you didn't rename the picture the address might be within the title of the image you saved

My brother owns the bow on the left.  Allen is correct.

Great. I really need to proofread voice command that post of mine was really butchered I just edited it as it was ridiculously quoted but I'm glad you figured it out from what was posted on my thread in a jumbled up manner
